Good looking or not, there is no guarantee that her child will as good as her sperm donor. I've seen many good looking couples having children who don't look as good as their parents. I've also seen good looking people whose parents don't look as good as them.
She asked for a child through a sperm donor and gave birth to one. Don't like the way it looks? Give it to someone who deserves to have that beautiful child. Children are not things. You don't get to choose what exactly they'll look like either.
Never forced anything on anyone. If she isn't fully satisfied with that child, she can give it to someone else.
All the better reason to get it right the first time. I mean, this is america. Everyone is supposed to get it right the first time. The customer is always right. Hehe

I find this a touchy subject but.... The company is selling a product. She ordered one thing and she got something else. If you were searching for a car online, and saw a pic of a white car that you liked and then they deliver a black car, wouldn't that company be liable for something?
You can send a car back, you can't send a child back. Huge difference.

No.
A child is so much more than just half of your genetic material. It's another life to be loved and cherished.
I guess color means more to some than others though.
Too bad.

What if they mixed up the sperm, and it wasn't even yours? Still not violated?
